There are currently 35 T6 R-designs listed on Autotrader. I'm sure there are others, but they are not up yet. Man, does black look good on this car. I swore I would never own another black car after the Mazda, but when it comes time pick one up pre-owned down the road I would be open to it.

Too much of a pain to keep it clean...looks good after a rain storm and that is it. I do like it when it is all shined up though. But between work and family I just don't have the time or energy for all those car washes

Once you go black, you never go back?

I was wanting (read: building daily) a white one, I've fallen in love with white cars, but that does look good.

I'm definitely looking forward to getting one in the pre-owned market in a number of years.

Hey when you get a chance, and I'm sure the numbers aren't in yet but ask the sales folks what the 3 year residuals on the V60 Rs are going to be.

White is my first choice as well.

I agree. I told myself I'd never get a black car, but when I found my 135is just sitting on my local BMW dealer's lot ready for me to take it home, I got it in spite of it being painted Carbon Black. At least it's got some blue in it when the light hits it right.

The finance guy tried real hard to sell me on window tinting. "You've got that black paint with the shadowline window trim, it'll look SO MUCH BETTER WITH TINT YOU HAVE TO GET IT ." I didn't have the heart to tell him the car was already too douchebaggy for my taste and I didn't want to spend money on something that would make me look like that much more of a prick to other drivers.

But yeah, black car, hard to keep clean. Right now it's sitting in my garage with a fine layer of dust building up on it while I take my Grand Cherokee through the salt-encrusted hellscape that is Madison, WI in wintertime.
